Coolest Girl in Town Chapter 78

After his reminder, Elise realized that she was indeed a little hungry. Hence, she took the initiative to
say, “I know that there’s a food street here. Let me take you around.” Alexander murmured in
agreement and followed Elise to the food street in Aris. After about a twenty-minute drive, they arrived
at Aris’ landmark commercial street. The place included a combination of food and shopping, so it was
suitable for people to go shop and enjoy food at the same time.

“What do you want to eat?” Elise asked, then recommended several local snacks. “The shrimp gnocchi,
skewers, casserole, and barbecue meat are all pretty good. Would you like to try them?” Alexander
answered, “Let’s have some casserole.” However, Elise hesitated. “Their casserole is known for being
spicy. Can you handle it?” “Yes. Let’s give it a try.” So, Elise took out her mobile phone and searched
for the nearest casserole restaurant.

When she walked in with Alexander, the Arisians gave them a warm welcome and led them to the
private room on the second floor. “What ingredients would you like in the casserole?” Elise asked while
referring to the menu. She listed, “Ground beef, shrimp, duck, portobello mushroom…”

Alexander also said, “Ground beef, shrimp, duck, portobello mushroom…” The two of them spoke at
the same time, and they even mentioned the four same ingredients in unison. Elise looked up at
Alexander, who remarked in surprise, “Miss Sare, I didn’t expect that you and I would have the same
preferences.”

Elise exclaimed, “I know, right! It’s such a coincidence.” In the end, the two of them ordered two
servings of casserole made from those four ingredients. Elise loved casseroles very much, and she
had since she was a child. The casseroles in Aris were simply the best, so Elise enjoyed it very much.

“Do you want anything to drink? The specialty here is the soy milk,” Elise said, but Alexander didn’t like
soy milk. “I’ll have a can of Coke.” Without even thinking, Elise rebutted, “Carbonated drinks aren’t
healthy. Let’s change it. Why don’t we get you fruit juice instead?” But, Alexander was persistent.



“Casserole and Coke is the ultimate combination.” Elise couldn’t out-talk him, so she gave up and
ordered a cup of soy milk and a can of Coke.

While the two of them were happily enjoying their meal, two figures appeared on the street, one
chasing after the other while the latter shouted, “Catch the thief!” When Elise heard the noise, she
subconsciously looked out the window and saw a fair-skinned man chasing a tan-skinned foreigner
while yelling, “Catch the thief!”

However, the people around them were all unbothered, and not a single person took the initiative to
help. It was as if no one could hear them. The tan-skinned man was heading their way, so Elise
instinctively got up, but Alexander reached out and held her down by her shoulder. Shooting her a look,
he jumped over the railing in front of the window and landed firmly on the ground. It happened so
quickly that Elise didn’t even have time to react as she watched Alexander stride forward in just a few
steps before subduing the thief.

Elise hastily ran down but was stopped by the waiter. In a rush, she took out her purse and handed
over a stack of cash; only then did the waiter let her go. When she walked out, the crowd had already
surrounded the thief that Alexander caught. The fair-skinned man caught up and managed between
breaths, “You wretched thief.

How dare you steal from me!” The man cursed, then unmercifully extended his foot before kicking the
foreigner. Even so, the man held on tightly to his wallet, unwilling to let go. “Thank you for your help,
kind sir. I’ve called the police, and I believe they’ll be here soon.” The fair-skinned man spoke to
Alexander in their local slang, but Alexander replied in English, “I’m Cittadelian!”

The Arisian wasn’t expecting this, so he was surprised. “Thank you so much! Who would’ve thought I’d
bump into a fellow Cittadelian!” While conversing with the man, Alexander glanced at the thief, who
was on the ground after being subdued, thereby noticing that the thief didn’t look frightened at all.



“Hurry up and return my wallet to me. Otherwise, I’ll make you suffer!” said the Arisian as he reached
out to grab the wallet from the foreigner’s hand. Unexpectedly, the man didn’t hesitate in the slightest
before he bit down hard on the Arisian’s hand. Alexander slightly narrowed his eyes and kicked the
man, who ended up lying flat on the ground while the wallet fell out of his hand.

The foreigner didn’t care anymore and simply got up from the ground before running away. The Arisian
wanted to chase after him, but the foreigner ran away so quickly that he disappeared into the crowd in
an instant. “You should take a look and see if anything’s missing.” The Cittadelian picked up the wallet
and roughly glanced through it. “Thank you all so much. In fact, the money in this wallet doesn’t matter,
but my ID card and passport are in here.

If I lose those two things, going back to Cittadel would be troublesome. The embassy of Aris is located
so far away from here, and it’s also very troublesome to go through all the procedures. So, thank you
very much.” Alexander replied nonchalantly, “It was nothing. Don’t mention it.” The man then took out a
business card and handed it to Alexander. “This is my business card. If you ever need anything in the
future, feel free to contact me.”

After briefly scanning through the business card, Alexander was surprised. “You’re from Northcliff!” In
fact, he was the successor of the famous Hayes Enterprise in Northcliff. This is such a small
world! Frederick Hayes gave a brief explanation. “My family is doing business in Northcliff, so I’m
getting by all right.

If you encounter any difficulties in Northcliff in the future, or if there’s ever a situation where I can be of
use, feel free to get in touch with me.” Keeping his business card, Alexander said, “I’m Alexander
Griffith from Athesea. I believe fate has brought us together.” Frederick’s eyes lit up when he heard his
name.



“Are you Alexander Griffith, the leader of the Griffith Family in Athesea?” Alexander was well-known in
the industry for his resolute business methods, so his name wasn’t foreign to Frederick, who didn’t
expect to meet the man here today. “It’s a pleasure to meet you, Mr. Griffith! I’ll definitely visit you when
I go to Athesea someday.”

Alexander gave a slight nod. “That’s kind of you, Mr. Hayes.” As the two were talking, the phone in
Frederick’s pocket rang. “Mr. Griffith, I have some business to attend to, so I’ll take my leave first. I’ll
see you again someday.” “Hope to see you too.” After sending Frederick off,

Elise couldn’t help studying Alexander before saying, “I didn’t expect you to be so agile, President
Griffith.” He was brave enough to jump from the first floor just like that. One floor was at least three
meters high, yet he wasn’t afraid of injuring his legs. Coming back to his senses, he answered, “At that
moment, I didn’t think much about it and just jumped!

Let’s go back and continue eating our casseroles.” Elise withdrew her gaze and followed Alexander
back upstairs to continue eating. When the two of them had had their fill, they left the restaurant.

To their surprise, as soon as they walked out, they were surrounded by a group of tan-skinned
foreigners. What was more surprising was that the leader was the foreigner who had just escaped!
